Abstract

This paper presents a compact square microstrip patch antenna design with meandered finite ground plane to enhance the impedance bandwidth. If this meandered finite ground plane antenna design is compared with conventional microstrip patch antenna design of the same design parameter with infinite ground plane (which gives bandwidth 2-3%), it is observed that this meandered finite ground plane antenna design gives the impedance bandwidth about 12. 8 % of the center frequency at 1. 87 GHz. The antenna design is compact and optimized for wireless communication applications. The electromagnetic simulation of the proposed antenna has been carried out using IE3D software of Zeland Software.
